US defense head is eager to frame operation as a success – and slam journalists for not portraying it in a positive light
Pete Hegseth on Friday again claimed the US military campaign against Iran has been an unprecedented success, using a Pentagon press conference to accuse journalists of downplaying Washington’s supposed gains on the battlefield.
Speaking alongside the chair of the joint chiefs of staff, the US defense secretary claimed Iran had been left without a functioning air force, navy or missile defense network after 13 days of strikes, and said the combined US-Israeli air campaign had hit more than 15,000 targets since the war began.
“The United States is decimating the radical Iranian regime’s military in a way the world has never seen before,” Hegseth told reporters.
Holy fuck that press conference was the cribgiest thing I’ve ever seen.
This guy’s brain is broken.
I like this typo because they’re all acting like fucking toddlers. heh
I tried to listen to it but the doublethink in his narrative is too distracting. What a monumental loser.
Yeah, I had to turn it off.
These guys are deranged.
There’s a vacuum between his ears, no brain.
